This super high yield black ink cartridge is rated to print approximately 12,000 pages, based on Brother's standard testing methods.

Is this a genuine Brother ink cartridge?

Yes, the Brother LC528BK is an original Brother ink cartridge, designed and manufactured by Brother for optimal performance with their printers.

What type of ink does this cartridge use?

This cartridge uses a pigment-based black ink, which is known for producing sharp, crisp text that is smudge-resistant and durable.

Can I use this cartridge if my printer model is not listed?

It is strongly recommended to only use cartridges specifically listed as compatible with your printer model. Using an incompatible cartridge may result in poor print quality or damage to your printer.

How should I store unused ink cartridges?

Store unused cartridges in their original, sealed packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid opening the packaging until you are ready to install the cartridge.

What does 'Super High Yield' mean?

'Super High Yield' indicates that the cartridge contains a larger amount of ink than standard or high-yield cartridges, allowing it to print significantly more pages before needing replacement.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing the ink cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is correctly installed and seated firmly. Re-open the cover, remove the cartridge, check for any protective seals or tape, and re-insert it. Power cycle the printer (turn it off, unplug for 30 seconds, then plug back in and turn on).

Poor print quality (streaks, faded text)

Perform a print head cleaning cycle using your printer's utility software. Ensure the correct cartridge type is installed. If issues persist, check if the nozzle is clogged or consider replacing the cartridge.

Ink level shows empty immediately after installation

This can sometimes occur due to the printer's initial estimation. Print a few pages to allow the printer to recalibrate. If the issue persists, remove and re-install the cartridge, or contact Brother support.

Error message related to ink

Refer to your printer's manual for specific error code meanings. Ensure you are using a genuine Brother cartridge compatible with your model. Try removing and re-installing the cartridge.
